In this article, we have compiled the most interesting fan creations for Red Dead Redemption 2. Through the presented fan art, we explore the phenomenon of character model replacements and the introduction of iconic movie heroes into the game's universe.

Let's embark on a journey through 20 different videos showcasing interesting mods with character replacements and examine the merging of the Red Dead Redemption 2 world with iconic movie and pop culture franchises.

John Wick in Red Dead Redemption 2

Red Dead Redemption 2 boasts an impressive combat system that allows for spectacular maneuvers and dramatic bandit killings. In this video, a modder dressed Arthur as John Wick, gave him and his opponents modern weapons, and orchestrated a massacre in the style of the iconic hitman movies. The end result is incredibly cool. John Wick meets the Wild West — an unexpected combination!

The Mandalorian Visits Red Dead Redemption 2

The author of this mod transformed the main character Arthur into the Mandalorian from the Star Wars universe. However, instead of simply transferring the outfit from the series, they created a unique version suitable for the American frontier. Now you can take on the role of a criminal traveling across the open plains, robbing stagecoaches without fear of being recognized by lawmen. Add the main theme of the Star Wars: The Mandalorian series arranged in Red Dead Redemption 2 style to your playlist for more emotions and impressions from the mod.

Spider-Man of the Wild West

It's no secret that Spider-Man from Marvel comics has existed in several eras. In the animated film "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse," we saw a future version of the superhero. Currently, a movie about a noir Spider-Man from the early 1900s starring Nicolas Cage is being filmed. The author of this video presented their version of Spider-Man from the American frontier. Here you have a unique costume for the era, building jumps, and the use of a lasso instead of webs. The Wild West is now under the protection of a friendly neighbor.

Arthur Becomes One Punch Man in Red Dead Redemption 2

A modder turned Arthur into One Punch Man, the main character of the Japanese webcomic One-Punch Man. Players can knock the sense out of bandits with a single punch. No more searching for powerful guns and bullets. Now your fist holds the power of a dynamite explosion, and enemies don’t stand a chance. The video turned out very imaginative and motivates you to try this mod.

Rango in Red Dead Redemption 2

The chameleon cowboy from the 2011 animated film of the same name has entered the world of Red Dead Redemption 2. The author of the video not only seamlessly integrated Rango into the American frontier's settings but also adapted the lighting so the character doesn’t stand out from the overall picture. We are eagerly awaiting a full mod where we can play through the storyline as the charismatic lizard in a hat.

Superman Guards the World of Red Dead Redemption 2

Superman travels the vast world of Red Dead, bringing superhuman strength and speed to the Wild West. The mod author not only added the famous "Man of Steel" costume but also gave the main character superpowers that drastically transform the gameplay. The video captures hilarious situations and a variety of abilities that you can experiment with for a long time. Forget about horses and revolvers! Soar into the skies and deal with bandits with your bare hands!

Terminator with Arthur's Face Returns to the Past to Kill Dutch

A deadly cyborg assassin disguised as a human, known as the Terminator, travels from 2029 to 1899 to kill Dutch and prevent the events of RDR2. The video author recreated the iconic James Cameron movie's introduction frame by frame using the game engine. It turned out very cool and atmospheric. We are looking forward to the continuation.

Anime Opening for Red Dead Redemption 2

With the development of artificial intelligence, a huge amount of generated content has appeared online. The author of this video turned the characters of Red Dead Redemption 2 into anime characters and created a full-fledged opening. It turned out very cool and atmospheric. Now all that's left is for Netflix to pick up this idea and make a series. And no need to worry about the plot. The game is so long that its stories would be enough for several seasons.

The World of Magic in Red Dead Redemption 2

The magical world now extends to the Wild West. Arthur Morgan uses spells to fight enemies and explore the frontier on his broomstick. The Sorting Hat and a duel with Micah using wands are all in place. The video author compiled all the mod's features into one amusing machinima. It even looks better in some places than the vibrant Hogwarts Legacy.

Cowboy Woody in Red Dead Redemption 2

Cowboy Woody from the animated film "Toy Story" has found himself in the reality of Red Dead Redemption 2. Another high-quality integration of a famous character into the dramatic plot of the sequel. Now there's no need to wait for the fifth part of "Toy Story."

Trevor Philips from GTA 5 in Red Dead Redemption 2

The legend of GTA 5, Trevor Philips, has entered the world of Red Dead Redemption 2. Welcome to the triumphant clash of the main characters from Rockstar Games' franchises! If you want to see how the crazy Trevor would behave if Dutch hired him, here's a fan video integrating the character into the story.

Batman Joins the Van der Linde Gang

In 2009, the development of a Batman game set in 1889 was canceled. From the leaked gameplay videos, it's clear that Gotham Gaslight could have been a very atmospheric game. But don't be too upset, as Red Dead Redemption 2 fans added the "Dark Knight" to the Wild West world and created a kind of reincarnation of the canceled game. The mod turned out very well. Batman fits nicely into the American frontier era, fighting for justice with his fists and trusty revolver.

Deadpool in the World of Red Dead Redemption 2

Deadpool has entered the world of Red Dead Redemption 2, bringing with him his signature humor, unpredictability, and fourth-wall-breaking antics. The mod authors found a suitable cutscene in the story and replaced a secondary character's model with the Merc with a Mouth. It turned out very well. But the real absurdity occurs in the next video, where Arthur in a Homelander costume encounters two Deadpools at once. It turned out very funny.

Little Jack Follows in His Father's Footsteps

Modders replaced Arthur's model with John Marston's son. It turned out quite amusing. Given that John doesn't spend much time raising his son in Red Dead Redemption 2, it's no surprise that Jack followed a criminal path from a very young age.

Neural Network Horror

Modders ran RDR2 gameplay and cutscenes through the Luma AI neural network and turned the game into a horror. Horses now drift, special forces storm cabins, and animals turn into monsters. Now the sequel has its own version of Undead Nightmare. Unfortunately, it's only in the form of a video, not a full-fledged mod.

If Bethesda Had Developed Red Dead Redemption 2

The author of this video showed their vision of Red Dead Redemption 2 if it had been developed not by Rockstar, but by Bethesda Softworks. Expect millions of load screens after every action, bugs, tedious loot gathering, VATS, and performance issues. They could have also added a quest to find your son and a second-rate plot involving collecting stones across scattered locations. Such things can't be fixed with mods.

Fans Kill Micah Bell in Funny Ways

Micah Bell is one of the antagonists of Red Dead Redemption 2, whom fans of the game hate with all their hearts. Thanks to mods, the bandit now gets what he deserves for all the evil deeds he committed in the main story. Players have come up with such intricate ways of dealing with him that it's impossible to watch this video without laughing. A real balm for the soul after the tragic events of the final act of the campaign.

Red Dead Redemption 2 Turned into a Movie

Another neural network transformation of a cutscene, but this time into a realistic spaghetti western. Would you like to see a full-fledged film adaptation of Red Dead Redemption 2?

Giant Riding Beaver Instead of a Horse

There are many mods for Red Dead Redemption 2 that replace original models with something funny and unusual. How about riding a giant beaver? Many would be horrified by such a monster.

Agent 47, Max Payne, Rick Grimes, Punisher, and Other Characters in Red Dead Redemption 2

This video showcases a collection of mods that turn the main character into iconic figures. For example, turning Arthur Morgan into a Russian soldier in a ushanka hat! Or a ranger from Fallout: New Vegas! This outfit fits perfectly into the Wild West's atmosphere. Finally, be sure to try the Mafia game costume on John Marston. It looks stylish.
